Yeah! I'm definitely interested in the pro-aromatase items and increasing SHBG, not entirely sure what that is yet. Do you mean you take a green tea extract capsule, (e.g. https://www.amazon.com/Life-Extension-Polyphenols-Decaffeinated-Vegetarian/dp/B000MYW2ZA) as opposed to drinking tea?
And I don't take any meds.
Looking forward to seeing what you'll "lay out"
Thanks
Yes, green tea raises SHBG. Let's put it this way, raising SHBG raises E2 (estradiol)...other things raise SHBG too.
High insulin lowers SHBG, that'll raise testosterone and going in the wrong direction.
cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate) which are second messengers will increase SHBG, I know, it's technical.
Things like metformin will increase SHBG. We've known about SHBG since 2015 here at BN. Check out this thread in the Ladies forum, it's full of good stuff. We even had a scientist (Clelia) join in with the research. Something I found out was receptors cell are made up palmitic acid, and how cool is that?. This means receptor cells are fat lovin.

I'm still working on a list of what raises SHBG. But think about this, if we knew how to raise SHBG...it may mean taking less NBE/HRT.
